From our State Rep Kevin SChriebers email announcing his new committee appointments: POVERTY AWARENESS EVENT NEXT THURSDAY In 2010, one in 15 households in York County fell below the poverty line – thats $23,850 for a family of four. One in six households did not meet the self-sufficiency standard to support their family without some public assistance. Each week, individuals must decide: Food or medicine? Gas or bus fare to get to work, or pay the heating bill? January marks Poverty Awareness Month. You can join the Community Progress Council for a poverty simulation. Facilitated by York College of Pennsylvania, the simulation will walk participants through everyday challenges that individuals in poverty experience as they strive to provide food, shelter and other basic needs for their families.
